Alt title: I like big birds and I cannot lie.
We were on the search for a few specific bird species while in eastern South Africa. They were mainly big (Blue Crane, Common Ostrich, bustards, Secretarybird, etc.), which lead us to staying at a couple of cool spots!

The Hawaiian Honeycreepers are facing extinction, and there are some great researchers and conservationists working hard to do something about that. We talked with a few of these folks to hear what they are doing to conserve these species and then went out to see what honeycreepers we could find.

We've been to the Rio Grande Valley Birding Festival for many years and each one is different! This time we were able to explore the Bahia Grande unit of Laguna Atascosa National Wildlife Refuge and see more of the Santa Margarita Ranch.
No matter how much you explore the Rio Grande Valley, there is always more to see.

On first glance, Willacy County in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas doesn't have much to offer. The surrounding counties have many more birds and eBird checklists to fill your time. But these country roads are filled with oases and lots of birds.

Birding from the forest floor only gets you a small view of what's going on in the canopy. Forest towers are a great way to see more of the birdlife up and down the trees with hawks and swifts up in the sky, foraging flocks mid-canopy, and woodcreepers below the crown.
Maira, Alen, and Hannah also chat about their experience on an all-women birding trip.

We had a free day when we first arrived to Costa Rica. So we scoped out a cool botanical garden, a coffee farm that works towards being bird-friendly, and an amazing hotel with birding gardens!
FYI we talk a lot about the logistics of our first-time in Costa Rica on our own with cars and driving.
